Event Summary:
Picturehouse 441 and ACE are proud to be partnering on a series of live virtual Q&As as part of our mutual efforts to promote film literacy.
Join us for a Q&A with director/editor/producer Howard Berry and writer/subject Walter Murch, ACE, as they discuss their 2024 documentary Her Name Was Moviola. Filmmaker and historian Howard Berry teamed up with legendary film and sound editor Walter Murch, ACE, to create this love letter to the dying art of physical film editing in Her Name Was Moviola. For this film, Berry painstakingly recreated an editing room with a Moviola and transferred Mike Leigh’s Mr. Turner to 35mm in order to recut a scene from it on the machine. Detailed and delightful, this film is catnip for cinephiles who want to take a deep-dive into the art of film editing through the eyes of Murch, one of cinema’s masters.
